Abstract:
PURPOSE: The purpose of this integrative literature review was to synthesize contents of emotion coaching interventions (ECI) for parents and explore unique changes in parents, parents-child, or child outcomes. METHODS: This research was conducted according to Whittemore and Knafl's integrative review method, which encompassed problem identification, literature search, data evaluation, data analysis, and presentation stages. Relevant searching terms in English and Korean were used for eight electronic databases: MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane library, CINAHL, RISS, KISS, NDSL, and DBpia. RESULTS: A total of 28 studies were selected: 16 Korean and 12 non-Korean ones. Among the selected studies, the ECI for parents was found to be effective in regulating both the parent's and child's emotions. The contents of the ECI seems to be applicable and understandable using self-reflection, emotional competency improvement, and emotion coaching proficiency, especially for demonstration and maintenance of a positive attitude. CONCLUSION: The ECI was an effective intervention which is helpful for child rearing, emotional regulation, and social competence for parents.
